[QUOTE="CTK, post: 1977200, member: 103842"] Does a carbon wrapped barrel flex less, more, or same as a traditional steel barrel? Is it more consistent flex and easier to tune? I get the benefit of not having a nose heavy rifle. What I do not know is if the larger contour carbon wrapped barrel offers any grouping benefit over a traditional sporter barrel. This is the question for me. If the answer is no, I would rather have the sporter barrel on a lightweight hunting rifle. [/QUOTE]
